Ld GOING POCO LOCO R9 A Fun-Filled Mayfete Week Culminates 22 With Queen Alyssa's Coronation Princess Sarah With a theme like Poco Loco, Mayfete week was anything but bogus. In a spin-off from the popular movie Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, Bill (Mike Dougherty), Ted (Blake Fabian), Nerfus (Jeff McMahon) and flash powder introduced the ten Mayfete princesses. The assembly was filled with such historical figures such as Socrates, Einstein, and Billy the Kid, who escorted the new princesses. With the court introductions finished, the students' free-time was filled with Mayfete activities. The court worked on perfecting their bows and the waltz under the guidance of Chuck Smith and Karen Regal, while finishing touches were being put on the class skits. Mayfete week was a time of Laker spirit in which dress-up days and the newly introduced post dress rehearsal bonfire let shine through. The senior class displayed a wealth of unity as they defeated the faculty 6-4 in the annual Senior- Faculty softball game. The brightly colored backdrop, designed by Steve Graepel, was laid out on chicken wire and filled in by the hard- working senior class, who Princess Amy siezed the opportunity to get out of classes on Thursday. On Friday morning, T.P. and crepe paper festooned the oak tree and was draped from the fences by the entrance all the way to the A-Building. Cheers greeted the princesses as they successfully completed their bows and the traditional court waltz. Finally the moment came, last minute guesses were made - who will be our queen? A shocked Alyssa Bremner gracefully bowed to the standing and cheering crowd in acceptance of this honor. Mrs. Mary Hill, in the place of the 1988 queen, Aliko Ban, who was unable to return from college, crowned the new queen. The skits were performed in her honor, and when the smoke cleared the Class of 1989 was named skit champion for The Muppet Mayfete Skit. Queen Alyssa and the court joined in the jubilant celebration topping off a truly Poco Loco week. CROWNING GLORY Science teacher Mary Hill, aided by Brian Zindel and crown bearer Randi Chi Nguyen, crowns 1989 Mayfete Queen, Alyssa Bremner as her escort, Don Ban, looks on. After years of teaching science and being a class advisor, Mrs. Hill retired in June. Princess Meggan 4 -— Princess Susan
